Pittsburgh Politics

I'm proud to note that the University of Pittsburgh has appointed a new Dean of the School of Law, where I teach: Mary Crossley, currently on the faculty of Florida State University, and a specialist in health law. Here's the university's press release. Dean-to-be Crossley and I practiced law together briefly in San Francisco many years ago. She is a great choice for Pitt.

Duquesne has also appointed a new Dean for its law school, Donald Guter, a Duquesne alum with a distinguished career as a lawyer in the Navy, but with no prior academic experience. Here's the Duquesne press release.
